My Collections

Any Legally Blonde fans?? 🖊️💖 Because when I heard they were making this show, I was intrigued. Then, when @uniballco sent this Elle Pen Set my way, I got even more excited about it. I also didn’t want to create any art without at least watching a little bit of the new show, @ElleonPrime. It came out on July 1, and in the first seconds of the first episode, I was already inspired. A pink, decorated envelope flashed on the screen as Mariah Carey played, and I knew I need to recreate that. So, not to spoil things, but the show kicks off with an everything pink birthday party. If you’re a Legally Blonde fan, I’d recommend giving the show a chance. It’s full of nostalgia, fun typography inspo and great pens. 😉🖊️✨ You can snag these pens and the fancy pink puff right now on Amazon while supplies last. You get four Zento pens in Linen, Lavender (the one I used in the video, unsurprisingly, Mist and Sea barrels. Each is a .7 tip with black ink. I have this pen in a bunch of other barrel colors, and they are so satisfying and smooth for everyday writing. A little chunkier than I usually use, but I love them for my to-do lists, chore charts and notes. Head to my stories or link in bio to get your own set! 💖 #ElleonPrime #theELLEpenset #uniballpinkpuff #zentoellepenset @ElleonPrime @PrimeVideo
Which color is your favorite? 🌈🖊️ The grape color is my favorite, but I am very impressed with the yellow. Also, that “steal” blue hurt to write, but I was just swatching what the pen says. Not the “steal” I would have gone with, but here we are. You’ve seen these before. I used them for National Handwriting Day earlier this year, but I am back with a full swatching for you. These are the @writechofficial Vintage Dual Color Gel Pen. You can find them at @papersource and other places on the Internet. I linked some in my bio. Cute little notepad is from Paper Source, too. p.s.

Markers I Love
Day 8: Cosmic 🌑💕 How could I not go with a moon theme?! I didn’t see any reports from @nasaartemis about a smiling moon, but this is what mine looks like. 😜 But seriously, have you been following along and have you seen all the amazing photos?! You should because my little moon doesn’t do the real thing justice. I also had the perfect pair of stamps. 👩🏻‍🚀🌚 @papersource stationery and @stabilousa pens doing the job tonight. And the did spectacular! #papersource #papersourcecreativecollective #iloveyoutothemoonandback #moonmission

Kid Projects
Lunch bag, but make it cute 🐸🦋✨ We’re deep into May-cember over here, which means field trips, teacher appreciation, fundraisers, events and summer prep. 😅 It’s a lot, but at least we have a few fun art projects to go along with all the chaos. Agnes needed a disposable lunch for her field trip, so I jazzed up a paper bag for her. I did it last time, and she was eager for me to do it again. She’s also been busy with her own art. Swipe to the end to see her teacher appreciation card. 🥺 Hope all the parents are surviving these last few weeks and days of school!

Nostalgic craft time 🌈📷 Please tell me this wasn’t just a craft we did back in Kansas in elementary school. You did this too, right? When I opened my Craft Month box from @papersource, @shopcanvas.co and @hpsprocket (which you can still go enter to win by the way), my mind was flooded with crafting ideas, but the tissue paper immediately made me think of those crafts were you used your pencil eraser to squish up squares and stick them on paper to make a picture. I took that idea and gave it a photo frame twist. I will say, my happiest surprise about this whole thing was how easy it is with glue tape. I vividly remember this craft being very messy: gobs of glue, the paper sliding around, the tissue ripping. None of that with easy-to-roll-on glue tape. 😅 I bet all of our elementary teachers wish they could go back in time and take modern adhesives with them. So, if you’re looking for an easy, kid-friendly craft to celebrate the first weekend of spring, give it a try! Supplies: - @papersource tissue paper - @hpsprocket printer - adhesive tape - scissors - pencil All filmed with the help of my @shopcanvas.co lamp. #nationalcraftmonth #papersourcecreativecollective #tissuepapercraft #diyphotoframe

Day 24: Abracadabra 😸🪄💨 Poof, just like that, it’s the weekend. Kicking it off with Magician Kitty, who is helping me send this off to @allisonandaarika. What other animals would make great magicians?? Now that I am thinking about it more, it might have been fitting to do a rabbit or dove, but kitty will have to do this time. 🖊️: @sakuraofamerica Gelly Roll pens and Micron 08 ✉️: @papersource envelope in Paper Bag . . . #bewitchingenvelopes #bewitchingenvelopes2025 #papersource #bewitchingenvelopes #countdowntohalloween #halloweencountdown #halloween #halloweenlove @papersource #papersource #papersourcecreativecollective #abracadabra #cat #catart #magicians #magic #gelpen #sakuragellyroll #sakuragellyrollpens #gelpen #gelpens #gelpenart #usps #uspostalservice
Day 23: Graveyard 🪦💀🌒 I ended up focusing on the envelope flap this time, so this envelope hints at the theme on the front and then really layers it on when you flip it over. Apologies to the name I write on the headstone on the front. 😳😬 I wish you no ill will. 🖊️: @sakuraofamerica Gelly Roll Silver Shadow pens ✉️: @papersource . . . #bewitchingenvelopes #bewitchingenvelopes2025 #papersource #bewitchingenvelopes #countdowntohalloween #halloweencountdown #halloween #halloweenlove @papersource #papersource #papersourcecreativecollective #graveyard #gravestone #gravestoneart #halloweenmail #envelopeart
